    No. 

    * When we have world leaders who think might makes right and/or call for violence to "solve issues", there will always be people who rise up and follow their orders/lead.  History shows this.

    * When we (meaning the people of the world) teach our children (or other children) - by our actions/reactions (or our lack of action/reactions) - that we tolerate (or sanction) violence or revenge with no consequences, they will repeat it and teach the same to their children.  The proverb - "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it." - holds true in the opposite as well.

    * So long as there is no justice evil actions will continue.  We let murders get off unpunished or give them a "slap on the wrist".  Many who do evil are let off (bribery, lying, etc.) simply because they are wealthy or hold positions of power.
